Hello,I have completed my graduation in Electronics and communication engineering this year 2024.Now I am confused of my career should I prepare for govt exam or do masters.

Ans: Govt. exam can be an option, but to get a Govt. job is tough. Whereas if you go for Masters then there is guarantee of the updating of your Bio-Data. But if you don't go for research or teaching there is no need of Master Degree. Better go for a job and pursue an online MBA from a good University. Best of luck. Just follow me.

Career

I am currently working in an IT Company in Software Testing Domain.I graduated in 2022 in Electronics and Communication Engineering(ECE) with a 9+ CGPA. I have a keen interest to pursue my masters in Microelectronics and VLSI or Integrated Circuits or in Telecommunications. But going by the trend and based on various suggestions most people are suggesting to pursue Masters in Computer Science. Many of my batchmates has also shifted their interests in Computer Science. I am quite passionate and interested in my core discipline but quite confused with my decisions. So, can you please suggest and recommend what to do.

Ans: Saptarshi, You have not mentioned how you spent the two years since your graduated. Your high scores do mirror your intellect and it is natural to get confused. Suggest use all the information your have gathered and take a considered decision on the next step and follow it up with sincerity and commitment. Making a start should be your singular goal and be focused

Ans: When it comes to securing government jobs in India, Electrical Engineering generally offers more opportunities than Mechanical or Electronics Engineering, especially in core engineering roles across various public sector undertakings (PSUs) and government organizations. Government Exams: GATE: For recruitment in PSUs like NTPC, BHEL, Power Grid, etc. Indian Engineering Services (IES/ESE), State Electricity Boards, Railway Recruitment Board (RRB).
For most government jobs in engineering, a Master's degree is not required but in DRDO, ISRO, BARC A Master's (M.Tech/M.E.) can be beneficial or sometimes required for research-oriented positions or specialized technical roles.
For faculty positions Master's degree is a must. Sometimes PhD is required

I have 222xx rank in JEE mains (98.5%ile, Gen Male), and I want to pursue any branch that focuses on mathematics and electronics, for example MnC, EE, ECE, EIE, etc. and I wanted to know more branches that are mathematics heavy. For example, I've heard from my seniors that Engineering Physics has a lot of advanced maths, which is not obvious to us students who have just passed class 12. Another thing I've heard, MnC syllabus varies drastically among colleges and colleges offer both BSc and BTech. These small things would matter a lot in the future. My questions: 1. What other branches focus on math mainly? 2. I can apply for BTech in Computational Mathematics and BSc in Mathematics and Computing in NIT Agartala. What's the difference? 3. I have a chance of getting Integrated MSc in Mathematics at NIT Warangal. How viable is that option?

Ans: For a balanced mix of engineering, electronics, and math, ECE, EE, MnC, or Computational Mathematics BTech are great options.

If you want deep math theory and research, go for Integrated MSc or BSc in Math & Computing.

Check detailed syllabi of each program, as curricula and career prospects differ across colleges.

Your rank gives you a good chance for some newer NITs and IIITs offering specialized courses — explore their seat matrices.

With 81,146 rank in vit .. which branchhes an I get in vit vellore ..is it worth it?

Ans: With 81,146 rank in VIT, getting a top branch like CSE or ECE at VIT Vellore is unlikely. You may get branches like Mechanical, Civil, Electrical, or other core engineering branches depending on seat availability.

Is it worth it? VIT is a good private university with decent placements, especially in top branches. But with this rank, you might get less preferred branches where placements and packages could be average.

If you want strong placements and core CSE/ECE, you might want to explore other options or try state quota/private universities closer to your home with better chances.

Hello Sir, My son got Electrical and computer science engineering with minor AI an ML in VIT Chennai. Hello got CSE in KIIT . COMEDK result awaited. Please suggest which option to choose ,based on all parameters ? Regards

Ans: If your son is interested in a mix of electrical and computer science, with a growing field like AI/ML, VIT Chennai is a strong choice.

If he prefers pure Computer Science with a more software/programming focus, KIIT CSE is very good.

Also, consider the COMEDK result before finalizing — sometimes good options open up there.
